The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1299

…

The area just outside city Dee is a bit chaotic, especially outside the walls that are protecting the city from the monsters outside.

A figure is currently frantically running outside while trying to prevent his footsteps from leaving any traces on the ground.

Xin Ja leaned on the wall weakly as he takes out a healing pill and quickly ate one. He then takes out a healing potion and quickly puts it on his wound.

After gritting his teeth from the pain he squinted while looking at the tall wall. He waited for a while and soon was able to recover a bit of his strength. He quickly stood up and then continue running towards one of the tall walls.

As he reaches the wall, he looks around, and in the cover of darkness, he carefully scaled the wall.

Not long after Xin Ja left, a few shadows arrived at the location he was resting a while ago.

"That guy was here a few minutes ago… The traces of blood are still fresh…" a woman said while she smelled the blood.

She was one of the D-ranks that came to this manhunt.

As the group continues following the tracks of Adam Summers they all ended up in front of the tall wall of the city.

"Do you think he scaled the wall?" asked one of the E-ranks.

"I… I can't find any traces of him…" the D-rank tracker muttered with a frown.

She did not expect to lose the tracks of the enemy after chasing after that guy for a while now. In her mind, she actually looks down on that guy Adam Summers and wanted to catch him because of his audacity to rape the two women.

If she was in the place of that instructor who beats up that guy, she knew that she would end up crippling that person.

"What should we do now?" Leo suddenly asked with a frown.

"Wait a minute… That guy… that guy really has scaled the wall…" the D-rank suddenly said while touching the surface of the wall.

"Damn it! Let's chase after him outside…" Leo Carbin cursed as he folded his knees and then with one strong kick his figure flew high up in the air and ended up grabbing the ledge of the wall.

He then propels himself up and quickly slides down from the top of the wall.

Although D-ranks have the strength and the speed of a Ki Master, they do not have the right physique of one. That is why… they are not as strong as a real Ki Master. Plus they do not know how to use their own Ki unless they reached the C-rank and above.

That is the limitation of the people on this side of this world.

They might be Shens and should be the strongest being on this planet, or even outside. But with the restriction given to them in Samsara, they could not fully utilize their true strength and power.

As Leo slides down the wall, he soon caught himself landing on the ground while taking out the two swords on his back.

Not long after he landed, he suddenly saw a rat the size of a dog charging right at him.

It caught him off-guard but he was still able to deal with it.

"Did that guy already die in here?" he thought as the presence of a giant rat means that the area in this place has an infestation.

And true to his conjecture, several giant rats began running out of the bushes and attacked him.

"Shit… there are hundreds of them!" he cursed as he began to slaughter those pests.

Not long later, several bullets came flying right past him and began mowing down the rats.

The other two D-rank has arrived.

"This… I don't know if I can track him in this dense forest. You know how dangerous it is, right?" she said.

"If you are afraid, then say so… He broke my brother's arms… If I do not take revenge because of this, then I would let my brother down…" Leo said as he did not think twice and began to run to the forest.

He did not need any tracker as he takes out a headgear which he quickly wore. The headgear suddenly restarted and the display reticle quickly showed the radar display of the forest about 500 meters around him.

He could now find several heat signatures in the forest.

"Let me see you run…" he muttered while he quickly runs deeper.

The two behind him just looks at each other and helplessly shrugged their shoulders.

"You guide the rest, I will support Leo…" the man holding a handheld Gatling gun said as he chases after Leo.

The woman nodded her head and quickly run to the meet with the rest of the E-ranks.

…

Deep inside the forest

It is said that the infestation in this forest has been really bad that it almost destroyed Dee city back in the days.

Luckily, the awakened appeared and Dee city was preserved and was not destroyed by the beasts.

The dark and gloomy forest at night holds great danger to those who enter it.

Right now, a figure is currently running through the dark forest with ease while dodging the presence and locations of the demons within.

Using his gear, Leo is able to dodge the presence of the many beasts that would pose danger to him while trying to chase someone.

At this time, he did not know where his target is. He is just relying on his instinct and luck so that he could find that guy.

Suddenly, from his radar, he noticed a figure suddenly running around 400 meters away from him to the northwest location.

He was surely shocked to discover that the guy was really able to survive even after entering the forest.

Without hesitation, his figure suddenly darted to the location where that strange moving red dot is.

It only took him a few minutes before arriving at a spot.

He carefully crept and then peeks from behind a tree. With both swords on hand, he could not wait to tear that guy apart using his blades.

When he saw the condition of his brother, he was truly enraged.

How could he let this person live after hurting his precious brother?

He has already decided to kill their person and chop him into pieces, just to appease his little brother.

As his head peeks out from the tree, he almost jumped in fear as quickly lashes his two swords.

Roar!!!

Who would have known that the large head of a demon beast would appear right before him?

Without hesitation, he quickly brandishes his blades and chopped them into pieces.

Blood and brain matter splattered everywhere as the head was chopped into pieces.

Leo could not help but want to curse Adam as he is now covered with blood. He did not know how he did such a thing, but he did not have time to think as he suddenly saw the red dot suddenly moving really fast.

"You want you run! No way!" he growled as he quickly followed behind.

In the darkness, visibility is low, but with the use of his gear, he is able to find the direction of where that person is running to.

Leo quickly runs and soon arrives in a clearing.

He frowned when he noticed that the red blip on his monitor suddenly disappears.

"What… What is going on here?" he muttered as he observes the tall grassy area.

He suddenly looks up and then quickly jumped above the tall trees. He stood calmly on one of its branches and then carefully watches the tall grassy area below him.

"Hmm… That guy should be here somewhere… But how could he hide?" he muttered while looking at the area with his sharp eyes.

Suddenly, he spotted a shadow from within the grasses.

Unknown to Leo who is focused on hunting his prey, another predator is slowly closing down on him.

The cold scales of this predator are able to deflect heat detection and even radar. It is a natural hunting demon that lives within trees.

With its long slender arms and legs, it is able to cling to any trees effectively. While the scales on its body would move from time to time as if trying to mimic its surroundings.

As the demon slowly approaches Leo, a figure calmly sits deep within the bushes while watching the figure of Leo being approached from three sides.

A slight smile appears on Xin Ja's face as he stood calmly surrounded by bone runes that hide his presence.

He carefully takes out his magnum revolver and then checks his bullets.

With enhanced and strange rune array pattern written on every bullet, Xin Ja held it in his hand and waited for the show to start.

From deep within the forest, Xin Ja noticed some movement.

He frowns when he saw another figure coming toward Leo's location.

"It seems that things became more complicated…" Xin Ja muttered as he heave a deep sigh.

He carefully touches the ground, and his figure slowly submerges into the earth below him.

He dare not face two D-rank awakened. Because if he does, then that is equivalent to suicide and he has no desire to commit one at this time.
